Background

India's civil aviation minister told Parliament in December 2025 of GPS spoofing reports near Delhi and Amritsar, among other airports, and named no source (The Tribune, December 2025). Pakistan's Civil Aviation Authority told a 2025 conference of Asia-Pacific aviation chiefs that jamming and spoofing in its airspace peaked at 165 events in February 2025, and its paper does not say where the signals came from (Pakistan CAA, ICAO paper, 2025). For the reporting on interference in the India–Pakistan Border, and who it is attributed to, see South and Southeast Asia.

By altitude

The India–Pakistan Border: mostly high altitude, which points to a powerful or distant source. How this is read.

The India–Pakistan Border: an aircraft is counted in each layer it crosses, so the rows do not add up.

The India–Pakistan Border is a sub-area of South and Southeast Asia, not a country. Its figures count the hexagons whose centre lies in its box, 28° N to 36.5° N and 70° E to 78.5° E.

The India–Pakistan Border is counted under South and Southeast Asia.

Fewer receivers fed the map in its early years, so compare old and recent days with care: how far back the map goes.

The bold line is a rolling average; the pale line is each day. Days are UTC. The share is red and yellow hexagons as a fraction of all hexagons with enough aircraft that day. Download the series (JSON). How to read it.

Questions

Is GPS being jammed in the India–Pakistan Border right now?

On 13 November 2026, 50.6% of the areas we monitor over the India–Pakistan Border were affected, 24.1% badly. That is close to its 30-day average of 48.7%.

Where in the India–Pakistan Border is it worst?

Around Jammu, where 73.9% of aircraft reported poor GPS accuracy on 13 November 2026. Most of it is at cruising altitude, a sign of a powerful or distant source.

Is it getting worse in the India–Pakistan Border?

Yes. On an average day in the last 30, 49.0% of its areas were affected, up from 24.8% in the 30 days before.

Is it safe to fly to the India–Pakistan Border?

Airliners carry navigation that doesn't rely on GPS, and NOTAMs warn crews of known interference. The map shows where GPS was degraded, not how safe a flight is: see its limitations.

The India–Pakistan Border: low reported accuracy points to interference but does not prove it, and the map cannot locate a transmitter or say who is responsible. How the map is made.

Neutrality. We measure and describe data, it is not our job to take sides. The map records where aircraft lost position accuracy, which can come from jamming, spoofing, military testing, equipment faults or space weather. Our data alone can't say who is responsible, so we don't. When we mention a likely source, it's because a government, regulator or reputable outlet has said so publicly. That is their assessment, not ours, and we link to it. Region names and borders follow common international usage and imply no position on any dispute. If you think a page falls short of this, email contact@libregps.com and we'll review it.
